A little late, but here's my combo for today's Ways to Use It and yesterday's sketch.
All images are Sparkle N Sprinkle. With these colors, to me this looks very Miami art deco. I like the arrangement, but it still looks a little plain to me. I guess I'm just not used to unstamped or non patterned c/s.
The margarita was stamped onto matte coated c/s and heat set. Then I used some pastel bic & sharpie markers and a copic blender to color it. A little glitter was added in some areas and it was cut out.
The 2 different pinks and 1 blue layer were leftovers and already cut this size. When I stacked them on top of each other, I decided to leave them these sizes and just edged them w/ the same markers. I used a stamp-a-ma-jig to position the circular wording inside the round frame.
The large blue layer was embossed w/ the cb folder. The two lime strips were left overs from the margarita image and were shaded w/ the markers and blender. Dots were added w/ pastel souffle pens. The two white brads were first colored w/ a lime green bic marker, dipped in glue then in glitter.
